Hot Hose Issue

Don't have a picture, but I know Southeastern Pneumatic sells them. We buy 99% of our pneumatic parts from them. Very knowledgeable and reasonable on pricing.

 

Yeah, I didn't get a picture of it yesterday like I wanted. I ran someone else's truck for the short trip that I ran, had a flat tire along the way, and it was as hot as the third rung of hell. Try again tonight lol.

 

I finally had some time to look for a link for the swivel.

@Frank Speak I've been meaning to suggest that you make sure you have excellent hearing protection. Everyone around me when I was doing bulk was either wearing two kinds at once (which is what all the big mines require, but my company didn't tell me that or supply the muffs) or none at all and could not hear, esp on the left side.

I started with the inserts only; I like these clay type insert ones from MightyPlugs, and then I bought myself some muffs at a Home Hippo once I found a memo that my company hadn't bothered to give me about needing to wear two at once. There is a lot less fatigue by the end of the day with the muffs on.

Wearing two kinds might seem overkill, but I had a precedent for it on the railroad; people who ran hump retarders had to wear two. It was a rules exam question, I never ran retarders but they are very loud and piercing, not unlike a blower. The old former retarder operators could not hear a 747 landing on them, and we got very carefully hearing tested when we hired (in a corner of an abandoned office not in a medical office near a loud HVAC fan) so there were obviously losses and lawsuits over it.
